    Not necessarily. Is fleshlight an actual brand or the general name of the product?Because if there’s other brands all labeled as “fleshlight” then it’s lower case.

    Like dildo is lower case because that’s the general name, there’s no Dildo brand Dildo as far as I’ve seen.

      lol I was making a bad joke about how it’s all uppercase regardless so my advice is completely useless

      you do have a point though … we take name brands sometimes and put it into our regular lexicon many times I think xerox is a good example as well.

        Xerox the first aid instructions about putting Vaseline under your Band-Aid and wiping away the excess with a Kleenex before securing with Bubble Wrap. Then you can return to playing Frisbee on your Jet Ski. Remember to bring your Thermos (you can secure it with Velcro and remind yourself with a Post It). Get all the trash to the Dumpster when you’re done.
